big man stands behind an open door
said, ‘leave your lady on the cement floor.’
“got some kicks, want to take a ride?”
i said, “yeah!”
“take your pick, leave yourself behind”
i said, “yeah!”
ive no fear but for falling down
so look out below i am falling now
oh please understand i just need, my friend,
a way a way a way home
tried to walk, found a severed hand
recognized it by the wedding band
said “it’s ok, do you want some more?”
i said, “yeah!”
said “you’ll see dragons after 3 or 4”
i said, “yeah!”
“under stand i’m not falling down”
i said, “look around, the rooms taller now”,
i can’t close my eyes, ‘cause i see the sound in waves
in wave, lets me stay calm
if i don’t lose control
explore and not explode
a preternatural other plane
with the power to maintain
like a tear in all we know
once dissolved we are free to grow
what is human, what is more?
i’ll answer this when i get home
